[Steam] Holiday Sale


Recommended Posts

Resi 5 is not worth the price, as many actual retailers are currently selling the console version new for ?14.99.

Meh, todays deals are not that impressive. I shall wait til tomorrow!

I'm seriously thinking of getting RE5 as it costs RM85 at the moment instead of RM179 but is it worth it? I enjoyed RE4 and I wanted to get RE5 but it was too expensive at the time.

No, I don't think it's worth it. It's amazing how Capcom managed to ruin it when it was based mostly off RE4, which was a fantastic game (and IMO, the best of the series). The basis of "run, spot enemy, stop, aim, then shoot" has got annoying now, but not as annoying as the AI for your partner, which is extremely dim-witted. Also, they have the cheek to charge you for DLC when it's already on the disc!

Wow. Battlefield 2 is MUCH harder than I remember. Makes Modern Warfare 2 look like a pre-school game! :|

I was playing Battlefield 2 pretty solid over the last year or so but IMHO they messed it up with the 1.50 patch which changed a LOT of things about the way the game worked and it put me right off. Probably for the best as getting addicted to any game isn't a good thing.. haven't touched it since playing it the first time after 1.50 came out!

But yeah - compared to modern FPS's its a heck of a lot more hardcore and there are some seriously good players out there on the internet. Took me months and months of playing before I could start to score anywhere near as well as the better players - and even then, sometimes I'd still get absolutely thrashed in a lot of games :(

Guns appear to kill these days :p

I remember putting half a clip in someone with the medics unlock before they'd die. Now it takes 3-4 rounds and you're dropped! Might just wait on the new one. Saying that I'll need a quad core before that's released!

Not really on the list of "great deals" but I bought the iD super pack for $35..lost my disks for Q3 and Doom3, so those two games were worth the pirce

rest of the list -> http://store.steampowered.com/sub/440/

Also I have the demo of Torchlight downloading to see if i'll pick that up as well..

EDIT: After playin for a couple min, I decided just to buy Torchlight, esp since its only $5...

Edited by rage710

I had to laugh at Torchlight being $5 - especially after someone said earlier they paid $9.99 for it!

As a rule of thumb : Don't buy ANYTHING else until the sale is on the last day, just in case it comes up cheaper on the daily sales! (Sorry guys :p)

I wonder what tomorrow's deals will be...

    • TLDR. Here is a far better title (just a basic example): Windows 11 26H2 to allow disabling Web search results
    • Restore will get my vote, only if to see if things are any different, doubt it though but Labour and Conservatives too out of touch and same thing over and over and over…, Lib Dem who?
    • There is nothing wrong with this title. You have completely missed the plot when it comes to "clickbait." The issue was never that a title tries to entice you to click, that is how titles have worked for over 100 years. The issue is when the title subverts expectations, getting you to click expecting something that isn't there. The classic clickbait example is "Boyfriend caught cheating, what happens next will shock you," then what happened next is the girlfriend was upset...which is probably the least shocking outcome imaginable. If sounds like what you want is for the titles to be a collection of 10-word summaries that you can skim, get the just of the story, and only click if you want more details. That is not, never has been, and never will be what titles are. You can go all the way back to print newspapers during the great depression and see the same thing. The newspaper was locked in a vending machine, all you can see is the headline, you choose to put in 5¢ to buy the paper and read the rest if you want. Those headlines were written in a way to sell the paper, not just to provide a summery. Here are two actual headlines from that time, "Wall Street Lays an Egg," or "Stocks Hit Bottom?" Maybe you'd say something like "it was wrong then and it's still wrong now." Okay, fine opinion to have, but it isn't like Neowin is doing something unjurnalistic, they are just following the age-old standards for written media.
    • AMD 26.6.2 driver brings FSR 4.1 support to RDNA 3 RX 7000 series graphics cards by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe A new driver is rolling out to Radeon graphics hardware owners, and alongside support for new games, AMD has just made its FSR 4.1 upscaling tech available to an entire generation of its products. Last month, AMD announced it is answering community requests to bring FSR 4.1 to past generations of its Radeon graphics cards. This would be starting with RDNA 3 RX 7000 products. Right on schedule, this is what's rolling out now with the AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition 26.6.2 driver containing official support for over 300 games. Following this, AMD is planning to bring out RDNA 2 (RX 6000 series) support for FSR 4.1 sometime in early 2027. As for the games, this Adrenalin 26.6.2 driver is a recommended install for anyone jumping into Ubisoft's upcoming Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced remake or id Software's DOOM: The Dark Ages' Revelations expansion. The two fixed issues in this release are these: Intermittent application crash or driver timeout may be observed while playing RoadCraft on Radeon™ RX 7000 series products. Purple screen may be displayed when using an HP Reverb G2 headset with SteamVR on Radeon™ RX 6000 series graphics products. The known issues AMD is still working on are the following: Intermittent application crash or driver timeout may be observed while playing Battlefield 6 on AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370. AMD is actively working on a resolution with the developer to be released as soon as possible. Texture flickering or corruption may appear while playing Battlefield 6 with AMD Record and Stream on some AMD graphics products. AMD FSR Upscaling and AMD FSR Frame Generation may show as inactive in AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition while playing Battlefield 6 when enabled on Radeon™ RX 9000 series graphics products. Failure to install may be observed while installing AI Bundle components in some regions with limited access to HuggingFace and GitHub. Model flickering or rendering failure may be observed in Maxon Cinema 4D and Blender on Radeon RX 7000 series and above graphics products. Users experiencing this issue are recommended to install AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition 26.3.1. Intermittent application crash may be observed on some models while running Blender on Radeon RX 7000 and above graphics products. Users experiencing this issue are recommended to install AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition 26.3.1.
